Aerodynamic Characteristics of a Slot-Lip Aileron and Slotted Flap for Dive Brakes

Description: From Introduction: "As a part of this investigation, a study is being made of test results obtained during the development of devices designed primarily for other purposes, such as high lift or lateral control, but which may also be used for dive control. These results have been reanalyzed and are herein presented in a form that should make them convenient for design purposes."

Air-Stream Surveys in the Vicinity of the Tail of a 1/8.33-Scale Powered Model of the Republic XF-12 Airplane

Description: "The XF-12 airplane was designed by Republic Aviation Corporation to provide the Army Air Forces with a high performance, photo reconnaissance aircraft. A series of air-stream surveys were made n the vicinity of the empennage of a 1/8.33-scale powered model of the XF-12 airplane in the Langley 19-foot pressure tunnel. Surveys of the vortical-tail region were made through a range of yaw angles of plus or minus 20 degrees at a high and low angle of attack" (p. 1).

An Analysis of the Compressive Strength of Honeycomb Cores for Sandwich Construction

Description: Note presenting an analysis that was undertaken as part of an investigation of low-density fibrous core materials for sandwich construction. This particular investigation found that honeycomb structure exhibit promise as core materials because of their high strength-weight ratios. A formula has been derived that considerably reduced the amount of testing necessary to evaluate the effectiveness of the materials.

An analysis of the factors that affect the exhaust process of a four-stroke-cycle reciprocating engine

Description: From Introduction: "An investigation was made to determine the relative significance of the factors that affect the exhaust process; the effects that an exhaust-process change has on cylinder charging were given special attention. Differential equations of this nature have been developed by Kemble (reference 1) but the forms of these equations are such that general conclusions regarding the various factors affecting the exhaust process cannot be determined."
